Headed to Venice this summer? Well, don’t waste your time waiting in long lines for entry to popular attractions and museums. Instead, reserve an appointment two days beforehand, by using the service found here: http://www.alata.it/eng/musei/musei.asp. It’s free and straightforward – what could be better? Viva Italia!
As I mentioned in this week’s story on Rio, a committee has been organized to choose the Seven New Wonders of the World, out of a list of 21 nominees. The results will be declared in a ceremony on July 7, 2007 (07/07/07) in Lisbon, Portugal. If you want to vote for great sites like Cristo Redentor in Rio, the Colosseum in Roma, or the Great Wall of China, then log on and cast your vote now.
